jdbwalesjdbwales Frets: 309
edited February 2020 in Guitars £
Nice guitar and the closest Epi I’ve played to a Gibson (big but comfy neck) with a huge tone, and 3 pickups adds versatility if you want it but I’ve disconnected the middle - happy to switch it back for the buyer. Lovely feel and playability too, and fretboard has been ebonised by a previous owner so looks pretty classy. 
This is a 2007 Chinese model and comes with a hard case too. 
Open to trades but cash is preferred. 
Collection from Frome near Bath, but I can post if necessary.

    Leather dye. I’ve done it myself before on an Epi SG Custom. Doesn’t come off on your fingertips at all!

    The one I used was Fiebings, you can grab it off eBay. You have to scrape the fretboard with a Stanley blade first to get off all the plastic coating gunk on Epis, then clean the board,  then I applied the Fiebings with a cotton bud. Weirdly it helps to have a pencil eraser to hand in case any gets on inlays/binding, rubs right off! 
    Wipe off the excess, repeat the process, then stick lemon oil over the top. Works surprisingly well and looks way better!
